Narrative:
While in cruise to ZZZ; ZZZ approach issues traffic advisory of a glider at 5;000 [feet]; 1 o'clock. Negative contact. 3 minutes later; glider appears on collision course but at around 9;200 [feet]. I query ATC [if] they have that contact and reported evasive action. ATC advises they only had the glider at 5k with transponder not other targets. The near miss glider at 9;200 [feet] did not have a transponder and was not showing up at a primary target.
